I never understood by laws aren't written in with a plain English section that specifies the "intent", to be used as guidance by lawers and judges later.

If laws were simple and easy for the average person to understand, there wouldn't be as big a need for lawyers. Since most laws are written and enacted by former lawyers, you can begin to see why.

The worst part of driving in the DC/MD/VA area, especially the Beltway, are the visitors. We get people from all over the US visiting the nation's capitol and we have a shitload of foreigners and diplomats as well.

It makes for some really nasty driving. I spent 3 years driving in this shit as a courier and had to quit because I would start to rage really bad.

It's so bad, just reports of approaching snow will turn the roads to shit before the first flake even falls from the sky.

Unfortunately, using a catch-all opens you up to getting a bunch of spam with random name attempts. I get 50 free email forwarding accounts where I register my domains. I create specific forwards for sites that require emails and personalize them for that site, i.e. slashdot@example.com.

This has two benefits:

First, I know exactly who allowed my email to be obtained by a spammer and secondly, I can delete the forward once spammed and the spam stops instantly. If course, I go to the site, delete my account and never return.
